So I was all ready to install my "new" 1080 ti into one of my P510 work stations and realized that the MSI model I have is 2 8 in power connector model not 6+8. The P510 has a 650w power supply but only a 6+8 PCIe power connectors. Replacing the power supply is not an option. On paper the slot+6+8 should give 300w and the 1080 ti recommends 600w power supply and draws 250w max. Can I use an 6 to 8 pin power adapter? I don't want to risk damaging the card since 1080 ti's are still going for a lot on ebay.
